|
|
You are invited to North Dakota's first ever state-wide geocaching event hosted by Dakota Cachers, MinotRanger, and yours truly, Honeybee77. This year's theme is Cachin' and Campin' -- North Dakota Style! It will be loads of fun, so grab your gear and join us at Fort Stevenson State Park (3 miles S of Garrison) on June 12-14! Everyone welcome!
The event is listed on geocaching.com as GC1M8CM. A direct link here: http://tinyurl.com/ahp6wq
Hope to see you there!
Honeybee77
P.S. Last I checked the Google Map of the park boundary is wrong, so, trust us, it's in the park. I sent a correction to Tele Atlas (folks who created the maps), but it takes some time to change I suppose. |

North Dakota.. what's that?
No really, this event is darn near the full way to Montana. Probably not likely this time. Aim for Fargo and maybe we'll think about it [ ] |

Wow you could cache the whole way here and back but yet you won't make the trip.
not even to see a good friend.
and it's a nice drive and easy. and we gave you ample notice. _________________ ---------------------------------------------------

that is what makes the trip so exiting you never know when your going to see the next tree. they kind of come up like a surpise.

With those rock cliffs in the background of that picture, I think I'd avoid placing a cache in the lone tree all together  _________________ The Lucid Network (tm)-- More Bars in More Places! |

I think there's room for a film canister in the tree and the rock formation. |
